Renault is changing these days.
https://events.renault.com/
Renault will be only electrical cars
Alpine will be f1 and sportcars
Then it starts to become a little blury, what about the rest.
If I had anything to say, I would take everything that has to do with Rally and normal tin top racing, I would call those Gordini. Again a Renault brand that has been used in rally, both R8, 12 and 17, maybe more models.

Go Gordini !

Just for the purpose of motorsport? You'd still then have to build 2500. It's coming back to the conversation of how sustainable is manufacturer backed series production rallying/racing when series manufacturers are saying they don't want to be involved.
At least with what Nogier says about the Clio in that last link is they can easily tap into an existing homologation with Rally3 variants, perhaps without disturbing corporate. How many do they expect to build and sell in secret? It's not good for the sport; these Rally3s should be as numerous as group N.

Nobody has to believe me, but I talked to a engineer this weekend who works on the project for Alpine / Renault Sport. They had some delay with certain parts but testing should start shortly.

Everyone with business in Russia have challenges these days.
But Lada is not a major issue for Renault Group
Here are the countries they are represented in; https://www.lada.ru/en/country
But they are not doing bad home in Russia https://rusautonews.com/2022/01/19/t...ussia-in-2021/
The good thing is that Renault will start testing their new Rally3 soon!

If Renault end up using the Rally4 engine also for the Rally3, what pro's and con's will that give?
3 vs 4 cylinders
1300 vs 1500 ccm
31 mm restrictor vs 30, what difference will we see. Same as for Ford, aprox 20 hp increase?
Engine gurus in the forum, pls blow us away with your assessments?

Do anyone know the current numbers of produced cars, and sold cars of the Fiesta?
Its been a good while since last update on eWRC, and a few cars that has been used, but no matched productionnumber in db.
Great speeds. Did you miss WRC machinery on these roads?
